The reporters profession is not to be

example, Pushpen rang at the door of Mr..
Grabble, the contractor, Just after midnight,
and when Mr.. Grabble came down stairs
Pushpen propounded the question, SIS 1t
true, Mr.. Grabble, that In laying Scamp
street you overcharged the city ten per
cent? Grabble flew into rage
and kckei his questioner into the
street. Now, person without experience
would have gone and advertised his dis
comiiture and made his assAlant happy
rather than the contrary. But Pushpen
knew what he was about, aud the Bilthcr-
skite next morning contained this simple
statement OF the events Of the preceding
night
at having come to the ears Of a represeu-
tatiYo OF the BidNcrsiio that George Flan-
nagan Grabble had swindled the city by
charging ten per cent, for work on Scamp
street more than the price agreed upon, our

ECHOES,

some who walks upon windy night,
Through unknown streets, to reach the
Minister door,
Guides not his footsteps by the gusty light,
But by the clangor that the wild bells pour;
Yet oft he pauses, when IN the winds roar
Some louder echo calls him left or right;
And much he Joys when, full OF angels bright,
He sees the great rose.wlndow flame before.
So II the wanderer In llfe's ways attend
To catch the heavenly carlton, above
Its earthly echoes, Nature, Art and Love;
Then In his ears, as earth's sweet voices end,
The bell sounds clearer, and before his eyes
Bright windows open in the darkening skies.

they are there, however, 1t Is to be

otherwise insuperable obstacles and
subdue even the most inhospitable con.
